Tells U. N. Members International Cooperation Needed for Mankind
NEW YORK, May 3.—(P)—President Miguel Aleman of Mexico told the United Nations Assembly in extraordinary session today that international cooperation was the only way to prevent mankind from falling into another conflict which would wipe out the present form of civilization.
Taking the rostrum after Assembly President Oswaldo Aranha welcomed him as one of the greatest contributors to peace in our generation, Aleman said:
"Only this cooperation can succeed in overcoming the difficulties that have arisen at the close of the war and must, finally, convert into a state of peace—a true peace—the uncertain period in which we have been laboring for several months."
He was given a tremendous ovation as he began to speak.
Aleman drove to the assembly hall at Flushing Meadow over rain-swept streets to appear before the 55 delegates as one of the highlights of his New York visit.
"Nothing indeed would be more disturbing than to acquiesce, either by convenience or fatigue, in a mere fiction of peace," Aleman said, "because peace is not an equilibrium of conveniences but rather a firm determination of the spirit.
"And in order that such determination may, at all times, vitalize the action of the United Nations, it is indispensable for this organization never to defraud the hope of free men everywhere."
